-One-week-later-
I was having… troubles figuring out how to use my new err "Ability". So naturally I decided to go the local abandoned mine or whatever it is. I call it that because I genuinely have no clue what it use to be.
I had discovered a few thing about my brand new sword in the past week. like when I pretend to sheath the sword like a dumbass… it actually disappeared after I let go. After a few minutes of freaking out, that I realized it hadn't disappeared I just couldn't see it… I have no clue how it just hangs there on my back though.
It turns out the sword has every ability the the trick sword would have if it took the apparition form… including sending out magical blast that did 100 damage if I remember correctly.
Although it was cool in all I quickly learned that just because it could do something didn't mean I could keep up.
I mean I have no training in swordsmanship so it was only a matter of time before I almost cut my foot off…
So here I Am Standing near a huge abandoned gravel plant as I've been informed. My laptop laid out in front of me wirelessly connected to the mobile hotspot that was my smartphone. I had spent most of my… meager monthly stipend on my new phone a week before I got my powers, so I only had enough money to one game… which wasn't all that big of a deal as i already had about twenty games on my computer.
A blast of wind dragging me out of my musings I took notice of my surroundings for the hundredth time. Staring out into the large expanse of unsettled land in Odessa Texas and I could only smile as I selected a freeroam game called Enchanted World.
Enchanted World or EW was a unique game for it's unique enchanting and inventory options. Such as instead of one simple back pack filled with a limited amount of slots, it had the option of storing things anywhere, as long as whatever equipment you were wearing possessed a pocket in the same place.
The enchanting system was at one point called the best on the planet. For good reason too as instead of a few different enchantments for weapons and such. You instead had the ability to mix and match runes to create your own enchantment, It wasn't limited either as there was a rune for every letter in the american alphabet allowing you to make any and every word in the alphabet.
Although you couldn't make yourself immortal you could change items into immortal objects, thus making so their Condition didn't go down when you died or used them too much.
So I clicked on the item I wanted. The screen blinked a second before it showed a grey jacket with a gray hood. Looking at the stats it wasn't all that impressive just a common apparel item of common rarity… that is till you looked at the rune stats. This grey jacket was one of the first things I ever got in the game and I well didn't level up all that fast because unlike other people I didn't go after monster like crazy.
No I was one of the few people who read the whole tutorial… including the enchantment tutorial which after trying out the newbie enchantments… I was hooked.
I hunted runes like a man possessed and before I knew it I was a level 6 with every rune in the game.
So naturally I filled every inch of whatever the hell I was wearing at the time with runes.
So looking back at the rune stats it was awesome.
Rune Stats:
Damage Absorption Rune: 95.6% Of All Weapon/Impact Damage Is Absorbed
Gravity Rune:110% Of All Fall Damage Is Reflected Into The Ground And/Or Enemies In The Surrounding Area.
0-Gravity Rune: When Active Gravity Does Not Affect Player For 60 Seconds
Energy Rune: Energy From The Surrounding Area To Refill Your Mana Points/Recharge Energy Weapons.
Pocket Rune: Right And Left Pocket Can Hold An Infinite Amount Of Items/Any Type Of Item
Immortal Rune: Jacket Is Indestructible… Literally…
Disguise rune: Flip Up The Hoodie And No One Can Recognize You… Unless They Watched You Flip It Up…
Awareness Rune: Anything Within Fifty Feet Is Mapped/Anyone Is Marked On Said Map
More…
After staring at the Visible stats I steeled my resolve… Reaching out for the screen I closed my eyes as I felt my hand… touch nothing…
Heroes-Original Theme-
*Swoosh* A huge gust of wind blow throw the clearing blowing up a cloud of dust as a Moon Eclipsed the sun. I felt my hand touch a sort of strange fabric… It was… Soft, yet it wasn't it was just… Strange.
I pulled on it… and when I opened my eyes I was holding a plain grey jacket with sweater type pockets and a hoodie… with the inside covered in black archaic Runes.
Putting it on I felt like I had just drank fifty cans red-bull and a monster… and I normally acted like a sugar addict…
So… Now it's time to test it… I placed my sword on my back no longer surprised at its disappearance as I looked around. To see the old rusted gravel mill equipment behind me…
Well that's convenient…
Looking around a little bit more… I noticed a green circular map was present the upper right corner of my eye... only for two bars to appear on the upper left corner of my vision… The top bar was green and the bottom one was blue the blue one had a +20s...
On a guess I would say the top was my health bar and the bottom would be my man-err energy bar… the plus twenty was probably how much energy the jacket's Energy Rune was absorbing from the area around me.
Looking blankly at the bars I shook my head and walked forward, Across the loose uneven ground to the abandoned gravel machine… thingy.
Moving to walk up the stair I stopped… An evil grin spread across my face as I lined myself up against the stairs. Walking back a few feet I turned. My spiky blond hair swayed a little as the wind blew passed… Running I jumped and weightlessness took me.
My force carried me up… fast and before I knew it I was right in front of the safety rail… My head making a nasty dent in the rail.
That was the day I learned that no matter how much damage is absorbed hitting your head on rail… Hurt like a mother fucker on hump day.
